2. Cathal Barrett Rating: 6/10 Not his most influential match in a Tipp jersey and looked a bit heavy legged, which is unsual for him. Grew into the match as the second half wore on but better performance surely lie ahead.

3. Michael Breen Rating: 6/10 His first really testing match in the full back position. Tried to get in front of his man for the first Cork goal which showed signs he is still getting used to the position. Also made a few runs once again that finished with the ball being turned over. Needs to get into the mindset of minding the house and leaving the hurling for others. Worth persisting with.

5. Enda Heffernan Rating: 8/10 His best display in a Tipperary jersey to date. He was immense all day and was consistently a route out of defence and used the ball very well. Has the size, hurling and engine for this level. Very positive.

6. Podge Campion Rating: 7/10 He is one player that is quickly putting himself in position for significant game time in the league, after again impressing here against the Rebels. Does the simple things very well and his running with the ball is a big weapon. Positive signs.
